Tri‑board meeting set for May 21 to review new Weston middle‑school specifications
Summary
After SLAM and Colliers forwarded educational specifications, the selectmen invited the board of education and board of finance to a tri‑board meeting on May 21 to review plans for a new middle school; the district asked board members to forward questions to Phil for SLAM/Colliers to address.
The board was told April 20 that SLAM and Colliers completed educational specifications for a proposed new Weston middle school and forwarded the report to the board of finance and the board of selectmen. The board of selectmen invited the board of education and the board of finance to a tri‑board meeting on May 21 to review the work.
The chair said the venue had not been finalized and that the middle school’s technology could be used if the town room was not available; staff will confirm the location. Board members were asked to send questions about the "small r approach" and other details to Phil so that SLAM and Colliers could prioritize follow up items to bring back to the group.
Separately, the chair acknowledged a $5,000 donation from the Hess PTO to fund East House cafeteria painting and congratulated students heading to the mock‑trial competition in Des Moines. Communications committee members said they are working to broaden outreach about the revitalization project so residents who are not parents can receive information about planning timelines.
What happens next: the tri‑board meeting is scheduled for May 21; staff and consultants will prepare responses to board questions and bring forward clarifications requested by members.
